The Journal of Dreams

The Dreams

Last night, I had a dream. There were these strangers who were trying to kill innocent people. The strangers would come up to the house that I lived in. As soon as they made their way up the wooden steps, I opened the door. They would not go away so I got defensive and started to stab the strangers in the back. What I didn't realize was that the more you stabbed them, the owner's animals would come and attack you. These animals were like no other. The animals sought the blood of the people who attacked their owners and would try to eat you. As I attacked a stranger, the strangers animal jumped at me. Its jaws wide open, just about to rip my head off. It ended there. It was a gruesome dream. I woke up covered in sweat and shaking. As I take deep breaths, I'm able to calm down. I try to fall back asleep and have a peaceful dream but that was not allowed for my brain. As soon as I drift off to sleep, my mind produces another gruesome and horrible dream. 

My second dream was about fog or mist. If you were consumed by the fog, it would make you go insane. In this dream, we were at school having a normal day. All of a sudden, someone points out the fog. We all gather by the window to see a horrific scene. The people consumed in the fog were attacking each other. biting tearing, and ripping at each other's body. At first, no one realized what was going on. We all thought it was some sick school prank.  Then when the people who got affected started to attack people in the school, we all freaked out. Everyone started running in the fields. We thought we'd survive because of the big oak trees that grew there. We were wrong, though. The fog consumed everything and everyone in its path. I decided that my best bet was to dig a hole in the ground. 

It was completely dark in the hole. I had this sense that someone was watching me or at least near me. I hear a low rumble and I slowly turn around. When I turn around, I see a pair of red eyes looking at me. I'm frozen, not sure of what to do. The creature takes a step towards me. I slowly back up and lookup. The hole is right above me. If I can jump high enough, then I can escape, I think to myself. I look back at the beast and then I jump. I'm able to get above the ground. When I look around me, I see hoards of people sitting there. They are all covered in blood and dirt. Their faces have pieces missing and their flesh is a green-grey color. When I turn back to the entrance of the hole, I see the creature. It has sharp teeth with black goo on them. Its eyes are a blood red and it has a creepy smile on its face. It's scaley and has two legs and two hands. Its skin is made from the flesh of its victims. Its claws are white with blood-stained on them. I stand there in shock. As I'm staring, the people come towards me. The beast and the people lung at me at the same time. I scream and then everything goes dark. I wake up once again to sweat and heavy breathing. Tears fill my eyes as I start to cry. I get up, knowing it's time to start the day, praying that I'll have no more dreams like this. Yet deep down I know that there are more to come.
